Riley's POV

I was walking into Hidalgos, I just couldn't believe what had happened a few minutes ago, I had hugged James.
Even if I kind of regretted it, I just couldn't lie, it was a good feeling being so close to him.
I saw Charlie and walked to him pecking him on the cheek.
"Hi", I said smiling.
"Hi", he answered smiling too.

Suddenly his smile faded.
"What is this?", he said pointing to my chest.
The necklace shit!, I had forgotten to take it off.
I quickly tried to hide the necklace behind my hand, what was a bit dumb, because he had already seen it.

He took my hand of the necklace.
"I knew it, you still have feelings for him, don't you?", he asked me with a disappointed look.
But he didn't even gave me time to answer, he turned around and started walking out of Hidalgos.
"Charlie wait", I said walking after him taking his hand.

He turned around with a sad look.
"I need some time alone, we can talk later", he said and took his hand of mine and walked away.
I hoped he would forgive me, otherwise I would never forgive myself.

James's POV

I was talking with my bro's Eldon and West as Riley entered Studio-A, she walked to the corner of the room and started stretching.
I felt bad for her , that she was so alone, but as I looked to her she turned her head away.
What was going on?, some minutes ago she was hugging me and now she was looking away, as if I had done something bad.

"Dancers, I hope you're all stretched, because we have many things to work on and the first thing I want to see is your Solo Riley", she said.
I looked to Riley and saw the terrified look she had, that wasn't going to be easy for her.

Riley's POV

The girls started whispering about me, I knew that we weren't friends so I should be okay with that, but it nervertheless hurt they were my friends some months ago.
I walked to the middle of the room to start my solo, I wasn't going to have a discussion over that again.

But right as I was about to start dancing I heard Michelle say:"In some minutes she is going to start crying", she and the girls started laughing and it hurt.
It hurt me that they were laughing about me, so as the music started I didn't move, I just stood there in the middle of the room without doing nothing.

Miss Kate looked over to me with a confused look on her face.
"Are you gonna start crying now?", Stephanie asked bored.
"Shut up Stephanie", James said walking over to me.
"Are you okay Riley?", he whispered to me.

I stumbled a step back and said:"I don't need your help and I hate you all", I said looking to the whole group.
James looked hurt at me, but I didn't care, I wanted to be as far away from this group as possible so I walked out of Studio-A with the bitchy looks from the girls on me.

James's POV

The girls were unbelievable stupid, how could they done this to Riley, they knew that Riley didn't like to do this solo, because it made her sad.
Yet they still had to made fun of the situation, I walked over to them, they were laughing again, probably about Riley.
"What was that for?", I asked them.

"She deserved it", Amanda answered with a grin on her face.
"What?, you bitchy attitudes, I don't think so", I said getting angry.
"Oh James, you don't have to always protect her, she knows how to protect herself, she is not some little baby, or your girlfriend", Michelle said laughing.

That made me even angrier.
"But I love her, and who loves you?", I asked her.
The girls started laughing at that and Michelle's grin turned into a blank stare, that definitely hurt her, but I was happy now and said with a threatening stare to them:"If I were one of you I wouldn't hurt my Riley in front of me"
That threw them of their game they looked all serious to me, but if that was the only way to show them that this was serious, then it was okay.
